Discuss the options with your school and university they might be able to help you out, I assume after you do your BAC you will have a few months before you start university maybe you can take that time to work and help your parents, maybe keep a part time job while you attend university.
Have a look out for charity's that help people with financial problems.
Ask around and get as much information as you can I don't know how it works where you are from but you surely have a lot of other otions you might not know about.

I understand the difficult choice that you have to make. I would advise you to speak with the University about a deferral for entry next year or in two years. Most universities grant such requests. This would enable you to help your family and not have to give up your dream. I know it is not an easy decision, but if your family is in dire need of your help and it is possible for you to help them, I think you should.
May the Lord bless you.
